Even the Lets get it on forum reads "Anything goes in this unmoderated board... except racist and illegal stuff."
Give the clown a soap box and tell him to call up the other holocaust deniers and they can have a meeting at the park.
Zionists are not a race, although they are mostly from the
European or
White race. Many born-again Christians are Zionists.
The Palestinians are part of a race, the
Semitic race, and Fury is supportive of them.
Fury never said anything about the holocaust.
He should be able to say what he wants, as long as he isn't inciting violence or telling people to harm anyone.
Geeh thanks for the genetics lesson. There is only one race scientifically speaking but dont try to twist the facts. Look I never mentioned anything about Zionists. I could care less how many born agains are Zionists. That was not the title of the thread you posted here. You might well as used the word kyke. If you don't feel its offensive then go join Jim Keegstra in Alberta or Ernst Zundell in Ontario or wherever we deported him to.
That bullshit has no business on the main page of this forum and my advice to you is not doing it again. If you want to paste National inquirer type garbage concerning Jewish people then go start a blog.

That may well be true. If it is, it proves my point that nothing Fury said is racist.

That's not true. The numerous Jewish people I've known during my life do not consider the word "Jew" to be offensive. They are proud of their heritage and culture. The word "kyke" however is definitely offensive.

That's an overly harsh and unfair comment. I have nothing in common with those guys, I'm just a boxing fan.

Tyson's comments were quoted in articles on the front page of the boxing news websites (The Ring, boxingscene, etc) and mainstream media sports pages (Sky Sports boxing section, the BBC's sports section, etc).
Ban me if you like, but I think you are over-reacting.
Re: Fury can say whatever he wants, and SO CAN YOU
When it comes to free speech, you have to accept that Fury is entitled to his views. Otherwise you have totalitarianism which is where political correctness is leading to. I don't see the issue really. You had the media in a frenzy over Boris Johnson yesterday and the man is entitled to his views. As is Ken Livingstone. It's a frenzy over nothing.

Too late Big T. PC'ness has fucked up the synapses of homo sapiens sucky sucky
Nobody has said he is not entitled to his views. What your good self and Miles along with most of the so called anti-PC brigade are really trying to do though, is censor anybody that disagrees with him. You are not for free speech at all just the right to spout off all kinds of ill founded and derogatory judgmental rubbish without ever having to face the consequences. If you really think that his comments are some kind of enlightening and truthful assessment of the reality of the world we all live in today you are dafter than a brush. We have governments imprisoning, torturing and executing people around the world for criticizing their regimes and media outlets ignoring mass events and publicizing their own agendas and you want to choose an ignorant fool like Tyson Fury or a buffon like Donald Trump as some last bastion of common sense and freedom. Bloody hell you must be bored ;D
Re: Fury can say whatever he wants, and SO CAN YOU
John Lennon believed in UFO's. Some cosmologists believe that there are parallel universes. Should we ban all points of view until they are systematically proven with no shred of doubt? It's corny. Let people believe what they want. It doesn't hurt me that Walrus believes in God. I like him for it. All this witch hunting over a few loose sentences. 'Ban him!'....Eh? Why? How about arguing why he is wrong and leaving it at that? That is the intolerance I don't have much time for.

Precisely.
Precisely what though? Absolutely nobody but you two are talking about banning anybody. Intolerance for anybody who disagrees with your points of view or an eejit like Fury is what it sounds like.
Re: Fury can say whatever he wants, and SO CAN YOU
Are you sure its been all over the internet that he may be banned and stripped, or is it 'should' be banned and stripped?
Again, people can say what they like. I think he should have his bollocks used as a speedball by an angry Ewok. I dont care for or about anything he says, I just think it would be a laugh.
Re: Fury can say whatever he wants, and SO CAN YOU
There have been great world champion boxers who have been murderers, rapists, unreconstructed racists of all colours, housebreakers, armed robbers, muggers, wife beaters, arsonists, drug traffickers, kidnappers and just about every misdemeanour you can think of......... but nowadays we want to ban somebody because of something they said. :confused:
Wow, how times change. It seems we live in a very sensitive, easily offended (and therefore socially dictatorial) society.
Re: Fury can say whatever he wants, and SO CAN YOU
He's a big ignorant thicko constantly alienating himself from the general public but to ask for him to be banned? What? That's pathetic.
However, stop crying about the public not liking you because of "prejudice and racism."

Mate its been all over the internet that he may be stripped and banned.
It's just the same story being regurgitated like a dog's vomit value meal. The Campaign Against Anti-Antisemitism (whoever they are) have called for him to be banned and the BBOC who could not even stop him fighting in the UK, have said diddly squat.It almost seems like You, Miles and Ross are praying for people to call for him to be banned so that you can make him out to be some kind of victim. Which rather hilariously is just what Tyson casts himself as. The EXACT kind of behaviour you all have posted 1 Billion threads bemoaning all the so-called PC brigade for indulging in. ;D
Re: Fury can say whatever he wants, and SO CAN YOU
Quite the opposite. He should obviously never be banned for having an opinion. It is the media and who they give time to that stirred this all up with fighting words.
